The Way We Come Across — 1 Comment

  1. Matthew 11:11 (KJV)
    11 Verily I say unto you, Among them that are born of women there hath not risen a greater than John the Baptist: notwithstanding he that is least in the kingdom of heaven is greater than he.

    I have no doubt that John the Baptist would not fit into this mold you’ve described here.  And I am pretty sure I stand somewhere halfway between John the Baptist and this mold. 

    The Lord gives us all different personalities for different reasons.  As long as we are abiding in the Lord, and taking our cues from Holy Spirit, we should be the person that God created us to be.  Some are extremely gentle.  Some are firm.  And some are abrasive.  Like the Apostle Peter – the Lord’s rock – and John the Baptist. I know what my calling is, and I know what my destiny is.  They require strength and firmness and confrontation. 

    It’s more important that we let the Lord show and tell us who we should be and how we should conduct ourselves.  Instead of making one mold to fit all.  I do agree that we should be careful that we are not letting the enemy choose our character, but I am also saying that sometimes our character includes the ferocity of the Lion.
